The Indrani Mukerjea Story: Buried Truth (2024)
About as documentary as Roadrunner and Coyote?
Well Indrani keeps referring to Sheena as unconfirmed deceased. Her lawyer states he has issues with the way the DNA was processed. Would it not make sense for the prosecution to just send bone samples of the recovered body out to be tested again by an impartial third-party lab? There really is no need to speculate as to whether the bones found were or were not those of Sheena Bora - that should be easy enough to determine? As for who is the father or Mekhail and Sheena, that is something else that could be easily determined. Test grandad and the other dood - name I forget - see who matches? Why is that a guessing game?
This Indira - ooops North-American me - Indrani woman is just total creepy. One is immediately overcome with the sense of "avoid completely - walk on other side of road". This so-called Netflix "documentary" had more holes in it than my kitchen colander. I cannot take it at all seriously. If anything, this show was likely generated by Indrani herself to get her side out or obfuscate further. This would explain why no one else from the family - other than her living V daughter who re-discovered her love for mom once mom had cash again - appears in it to speak.
Whatever happened to the missing 90$ million or so from the INX start-up? Never mentioned again lol. There is a brief reference to the couple leaving India to live in the UK - when was this, before or after Sheena's disappearance? Why did they not remain in the UK? I could go on but you get my point. As I said, more holes than my colander.
Major messed up cast of folk here all around. To call this show a documentary is a real stretch equivalent to calling The Simpsons classic literature. On the plus side, it is at least an English-language release - rare for Netflix in Canada these days.
Rebel Moon - Part One: A Child of Fire (2023)
Absolutely awful.
The one star is for Charlie who always will get something from me, even though he is wrong for and totally wasted in his role here.
For the reportedly exorbitant cost Netflix spent in the making this schlock - funds that could no doubt have fed several beleaguered villages or 5 for a few years - it is really even more poor. Wasted money and wasted cast. Even the CGI effects are not super duper, again, considering cost to make.
If you are on your sleepy time meds and just want to give them time to kick in while you are in your LaZ boy then ok, this movie is for you. Otherwise, don't waste your popcorn.
House of Cards (2013)
Such great reviews, I thought I would try this series.
Ok folx - what gives with this series? I got through S1E1 - barely mind you - and post one episode I realized "this has got to be the most confusing and boring show on Netflix". And, this is when weighed against an ever-expanding Canadian Netflix catalogue of non-English titles as well!
Unless the show really picks up as it goes on - normally shows get worse as the seasons carry forward - I cannot imagine why so many people seem to think it's great.
Am I missing something? Do I have poor taste in shows? LOL well ... I liked Blacklist and was recommended this series by the same person who recommended Red Reddington. Sadly, while Red was thoroughly enjoyable (hard to go wrong with James Spader though one can go very wrong with Megan Boone!) House of Cards had me totally bored after the first 4 minutes.
Very bad show!
